When filmic came out everyone freaked out about it being objectively the best color space to work with. I’ve tried it a lot, especially with it being default, but most of the time the render feels off to me and I opt to go back to the standard color space.
Troy is, well, blunt to say the least, but Spikey is right that he appears to be extremely knowledgeable. Getting filmic accepted and ported to other render tech is evidence enough of this.
But I personally don’t care primarily about tools that are deemed scientifically “best” by the smartest people in the room. Primarily I want my render to be the most appealing to my eye. Standard seems to do that more often than filmic for me. If filmic does that more often for you, keep it that way!
